As shown in Fig. 2 (C), 1 OFDM symbol comprises: the significant character that comprises a plurality of data symbols of frequency division multiplexing; And the GI portion (protection interval parts) being formed by the identical redundant signals of signal of the end part with this significant character.Phase reference symbol (PRS) at least consists of 1 OFDM symbol.In addition, in the present embodiment, before GI portion is configured to next-door neighbour's significant character, but be not limited to this.For example,, after GI portion also can be configured to next-door neighbour's significant character.
In addition, k the subcarrier frequency f using in ofdm signal kfor example by following formula, provide.
f k=fc+k×f 0
Wherein, f 0=1/Tu sets up.During Tu is the significant character of OFDM symbol, fc is reference carrier frequency.In addition, k is sub-carrier number, is that 0~N-1(N is positive integer) scope in arbitrary integer.Therefore, subcarrier frequency is spaced apart f 0and constant.
As shown in Figure 1, receiving system 1 has discrete fast Fourier transform portion (DFT) 15, differential demodulation section 16 and channel decoder 17.DFT15 carries out multi-point sampling to the baseband receiving signals of 1 significant character, and the baseband receiving signals of this sampling is implemented discrete fast Fourier transform and exported the complex symbol signal of frequency domain.In addition, can generate complex symbol signal with the orthogonal transform of other kinds beyond discrete fast Fourier transform.
Differential demodulation section 16 using in the output of DFT15, with synchronizing channel portion beyond the FIC portion complex symbol signal suitable with MSC portion as input, and these complex symbol signals carried out to differential demodulation generate receiving data sequence.Channel decoder 17 comprises Veterbi decoding portion 18 and Read-Solomon lsb decoder (RS lsb decoder) 19.19 pairs of receiving data sequences from differential demodulation section 16 inputs of Veterbi decoding portion 18 and RS lsb decoder are implemented Veterbi decoding and Read-Solomon decoding.Source decoder 20 can decode to obtain voice data to the output of channel decoder 17.In addition, the structure of differential demodulation section 16, channel decoder 17 and source decoder 20 is examples, the invention is not restricted to this structure.
As shown in Figure 1, the receiving system 1 of present embodiment has the 1st frequency error detection portion 21 of detected carrier frequency error and the 2nd frequency error detection portion (narrow frequency error-detecting portion) 22.The 2nd frequency error detection portion 22 has detects subcarrier frequency interval with the function of interior carrier frequency error, and the 1st frequency error detection portion 21 has the function of the carrier frequency error of the integral multiple that detects subcarrier frequency interval.

Wherein, s(t) be the baseband receiving signals component while there is not carrier frequency error Δ f.
As shown in Fig. 2 (C), the redundant signals in GI portion is identical with the signal of the end part of significant character, so following formula (2) is set up.
s(t)=s(t-Tu)…(2)
The coherent signal Corr(t being provided by following formula (3) can calculate in correlation operation portion 42).
Corr(t)=r(t)×r *(t-Tu)=|s(t)| 2exp(j2π·Δf·Tu)…(3)
Therefore carrier frequency error Δ f, this coherent signal Corr(t) can obtain by following formula (4).
Δf = 1 2 π · Tu tan - 1 [ Im ( Corr ( t ) ) Re ( Corr ( t ) ) ] · · · ( 4 )
Wherein, tan -1(x) represent the arctan function relevant to variable x, Re(Corr(t)) be coherent signal Corr(t) real part be in-phase component, Im(Corr(t)) be coherent signal Corr(t) imaginary part be quadrature component.
Receiving signal has and is subject to the impact of noise and multipath fading and the situation of distortion.In order to get rid of this impact, the 2nd frequency error detection portion 22 makes the equalization portion 43 of the output equalization of correlation operation portion 42 in having during GI portion.Operational part 45 can be used above formula (4) to calculate carrier frequency error Δ f according to the output of this equalization portion 43.In addition, operational part 45 offers local oscillator 13 by the frequency error signal Ds2 that represents carrier frequency error Δ f.In addition, the structure of the 2nd frequency error detection portion 22 is not limited to the structure shown in Fig. 3.
The structure of the 1st frequency error detection portion 21 then, is described.
Fig. 4 is the functional block diagram that the Sketch of the 1st frequency error detection portion 21 is shown.As shown in Figure 4, the 1st frequency error detection portion 21 has synchronizing symbol extraction unit 31, the 1st complex operation portion 32, contrast signal supply unit 33, correlation operation portion 36 and peak value test section 37.
Synchronizing symbol extraction unit 31 has from the complex symbol signal of the output as DFT15, extracts the synchronizing symbol corresponding with phase reference symbol (Fig. 2 (B)) as the function that receives known signal.Use F(f k) represent and subcarrier frequency f kcorresponding synchronizing symbol.Now, comprise synchronizing symbol component F (f k) baseband receiving signals r(t) for example can enough following formulas (5) performance.
